- Meanwhile, in a medium bowl whisk together egg yolks, remaining 1/4 cup of flour, cinnamon, nutmeg and remaining 1/4 cup of sugar. When milk and eggnog mixture is at a simmer, remove pan from heat.
- While whisking, slowly pour about 1 cup of warm milk mixture into egg mixture. Then pour egg mixture into pan with remaining milk and eggnog.

- Before serving pie, whip cream and liquor (if using) together until cream holds stiff peaks. Remove plastic wrap from surface of pie and evenly spread whipped cream over surface. If desired, lightly dust top of pie with cinnamon and nutmeg. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
